Selected Macdonald Spa Hotels offer free health checks to guests

04 Feb 2013 . BY Jessica Tasman-Jones

Guests are talked through their current health status, wellness goals and motivation as part of the health check

Guests at Macdonald Spa Hotels can now get a free health check on top of spa treatments at 17 of the hotel group’s spa resorts across the UK.

The Vital Health & Wellbeing Checks – provided by Fitech and already used by the fitness industry, medical departments and educational sector, as well as military, police and fire service – were launched in January. Macdonald is one of the first hotel group’s to introduce the service.

In an initial consultation, guests are talked through their current health status, wellness goals and motivation, being questioned about stress levels, nutrition, drinking habits, smoking and activity levels.

Physical checks go through blood pressure, resting heart rate, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage, lung function, flexibility and aerobic fitness.

Resulting information is collated in a personal report highlighting areas where individuals have room for improvement, and advice given on how to improve lifestyle choices – taking into account work and family commitments.

A 12-week review and six-monthly progress updates provide ongoing information and advice and ensure guests are supported after their stay.

Macdonald Hotels has 45 properties across the UK, including 24 spa sanctuaries, where treatments include Decléor facials and Jessica manicures.
